a narrow, steep, winding road until Omeo, after which it became a normal type of road down towards
Bruthen where we planned our next campsite. It was suppossed to be just out off Bruthen down
a dirt road for 8kms to a camp in a state forest. Well after traveling down a small track for
5kms the track became too rough to proceed so we had to unhitch the Suzuki, turn it around then
reverse "Lucky Pigs" back down the track for about 1km where it could be turned around (5 point turn too!)
As rain was forcast we definately didn't need to be stuck\bogged down in this forest so we
setup camp very close to the junction of the track and the highway (photo). Anyhow just before nightfall
there was a knock on our door - a chap called "David" introduced himself and offered us the use
of a cottage on his farm for the night, but after explaining our current circumstances we politely
declined, which was just as well because at 2.30am down it came rain non-stop, so at 5am we decided
to get off the dirt track and travelled some 15 kms to a Lions Park on the outskirts of Bairnsdale.
